Question

Safe places to live near Detroit, MI (work near Detroit Receiving Hospital)?

My husband and I are looking to relocate near Detroit Receiving Hospital. What areas are the safest? FYI my husband is a medical student and he unfortunately is an easy target/ stands out in Detroit because he is very white and nerdy. If you have ever heard the song 'White n' Nerdy' that is him in a nutshell.
Anyway, where we are living now is just too far to commute but we don't want to risk his or my safety.
Any suggestions?
